Subject: English-Only States



Although I haven't tried any kind of formal investigation, I've been

asking around informally ever since I saw Tom Murray's list of twenty-one

states with "English-only legislation in place," and I have yet to find a

single Mississippian who was aware we had such a law. At lunch today we

concluded that maybe Mississippi was on that list because such a law was

passed many, many years ago. Is that likely? What was that list of the

twenty-one states based on?
